Grand Hyatt Macau
For sophisticated dining with plenty of delicious and eclectic options, the mezza9 is a must visit for the international visitor in Macau.
The eatery in Grand Hyatt Macau in City of Dreams Casino has upped the ante in gastronomy scene in Macau, offering a bewildering plethora of cuisines, from American-style steaks and Japanese sashimi to steamed live seafood Cantonese-style and exotic Macanese fare.
Expanding on the award-winning concept of the first mezza9 - at Singapore's Grand Hyatt, it offers 9 cuisine stations that display lavishly temptations from land and sea in between dining areas for nearly 300 diners.
Be assaulted by cooking sounds and action, aromas of food being cooked and the flamboyant displays of colourful produce and condiments as you poke around the stations for Macanese food, the grill, the sushi and sashimi bar, the wok, the steam basket, the deli, the patisserie, the cellar and bar.
As you explore the different sections divided by huge stone walls and long counters, vibrantly coloured fruit and veggies compete with seafood like live lobsters and premium meats for your attention.
As you meander around this maze of cooking showrooms, gourmet markets, restaurants and semi-private seating areas, you feel that the over-sized displays seemed bent to take you to some fantasy land.
Choose your favourite spot, sit tight and dream of the succulent steak and grilled lobster while waiting for them to arrive.
With things of theatrical proportions surrounding you, you can't help but feel that you're player too. Or perhaps a star!
That's the magical effect the exciting design has on one - whether at mezza9 Macau or at its counterpart in Singapore
Some recommendations: giant tomahawk steaks - choose from Wagyu or US Prime, sashimi, seafood platter, grilled seafood like lobsters, steamed live fish, Macanese cuisine and a symphony of desserts to bring your feast to a spectacular close.
The grandiose Baileys Chocolate Souffle, a huge fluffy puff of eggy and boozy delight should be presented on a pedestal.
mezza9 is definitely a happening dining destination in Macau's gambling strip. Ideal for dinner or Sunday brunch with family, friends or business associates.
You'll feel quite exclusive...and safe here - away from the madding crowds at the popular casino areas.
